I’m here from Reddit. They banned me for absolutely no reason. That’s frustrating. How works Lemmy ?

    You don’t have to use Linux… But, the side effects of using Lemmy might include switching to Linux and self hosting.

        #ME2

        I mean, I didn’t when I joined Lemmy, but I do now.

        I don’t think Lemmy was the deciding factor, Microsoft almost forced me by checking how much they can enshitificate win11 before users start exploding.

            It “just worked” for me as well… Until I got annoyed, wiped it tf out, installed linux, and learned about tiling wms/compositors (hyprland my goat) in the process.

            Trust me, you’re one bad day away from becoming one of us in full capacity:)

            That’s perfectly valid. If Windows suits your needs and priorities, use it. I use Windows on my work laptop because Linux would be a nightmare with all the tools and apps we use. But personal laptop? Linux all the way.
